Five Songs That Reminds Me of my College Years

I am listening to songs in my phone right now and I again heard five songs that reminds me of the past. These songs sometimes made me feel blue and sometimes made made smile.

What are the songs that made you think about your past?

Here are some random of the songs that makes me remember college years:

1. Insensitive by Jan Arden
How do you cool your lips? After a summer’s kiss? How do you rid the sweat? After the body bliss?
I am actually listening to it know and college memories stikes me at this very moment. This song etched my mind and heart when I was in my first year college. We were many in a room and my roommates always plays this one. That time, I was in immense heartache that’s why this song still struck my heart. I guess I will always remember my college years with this one.

2. Ikaw Lamang by Silent Sanctuary

This is one of my favorite songs way back college. I am so in love with this song that I made a cover of this (but I don’t know now where is it). The song is a Filipino song sung by a band here in the Philippines called Silent Sanctuary. The English term for this is “Only You” The songs says that whatever will happen, the boy will love the girl only and no one else. I remember this when I was in my second year in college in our dormitory’s veranda. It is a very solemn song and I feel that the singer really loves the girl.

3. Irreplaceable

This kind of makes me laugh because I was in my first year college then and my boyfriend that time always sings this to me. I thought it is a love song or what but after months, after we broke up, that’s when the time I remembered him because he always sings this to me. LOL

4. One Way Jesus

This is one of the songs that I will never forget. The memory of me hearing this song for the first time still give me goosbumps. It’s as if I can feel our Lord God touching me and and my heart. I was in a service then when I first heard this and until now, I never want to forget it.

5. Terrified

Whenever I hear this song, all I can remember is my friend and roommate. When this song was very popular, she played this everyday for over 50 times. Guys, please note that this is 50 times a day. Haha. But I just love her so much that saying things like “Will you please stop that song” is of course a no-no to me even though my ears are hurting already. One of the songs indeed that I will never forget in my dorm life.

These are just five of those things that I will never forget about my college life. These songs reminds me that some time in my life I have been in a dormitory full of strangers which turned out to be the friends that I will keep for life.

  1. Jan Arden's Insensitive is a lovely song, poignant and thought-provoking. 1995, IIRC.
